Age-old college football rivalries don’t just take place in the fall, they also take place in February when those same rivals fight over the next blue-chip recruit. The battles can get as nasty as it gets on the gridiron, maybe nastier.

Michigan-Ohio State should be relatively quiet this week, as will Texas-Oklahoma and Texas-Texas A&M (take your pick). Those schools’ classes are pretty much wrapped up—but here are five battles that will continue deep into the first day of the national signing period on Wednesday.

ALABAMA VS. AUBURN

This year has been mostly all about Alabama, but Auburn was certainly putting up a fight before its coaching change. In the end though, the Crimson Tide will likely end up with longtime Auburn commitment, DT Dee Liner, who decommitted in mid-January. The Tide also snapped up linebacker Reuben Foster, who de-committed from Auburn in December. Montravius Adams has taken official visits to both schools and will pick on Wednesday, though Clemson looks to have the upper hand there. Overall, Alabama has the edge on the Tigers and will take home the Iron Bowl of Recruiting trophy.

UCLA VS. USC

Every year, it seems like a few of USC’s elite recruits get cold feet and sign somewhere else. Lately, Oregon has plucked away the most recruits from the Trojans, but this year it could be UCLA. Sporting News Top 125 DE Eddie Vanderdoes was once a USC commit, but could end up with UCLA—with Alabama and Notre Dame also figuring into the mix. Also, SN125 member Kylie Fitts could end up doing the same thing. He dropped USC recently and is seriously considering the Bruins.

FLORIDA STATE VS. MIAMI

OK, maybe this rivalry has lost some of its on-the-field luster in recent years, but this might be one of the spirited battles on national signing day. The Seminoles are making a huge push into South Florida, and are in contention for talent in Miami’s backyard. Matthew Thomas, Stacy Coley and summer camp standout Denver Kirkland are each considering both schools, but it appears the Hurricanes hold the slight edge in this battle. If either class collects all three players, it’ll shoot up the rankings.

OREGON VS. WASHINGTON

Any time there’s a coaching change, even if it’s not following a firing and things remain stable (like at Oregon), it still sends shockwaves through the recruiting world. Oregon is trying to hold on to a small but talented class. Its Pac-12 rival to the north—Washington—might be able to come away with the Robinson brothers, Tyrell and Tyree. Both were solid to the Ducks before coach Chip Kelly left for the NFL. The Ducks will also try to hold onto Darren Carrington, who may end up elsewhere.

OLE MISS VS. MISSISSIPPI STATE

This has been a remarkable recruiting year for both SEC schools. Ole Miss is red hot and can finish even hotter if it can beat out its hated Egg Bowl rivals for several top in-state studs. Chris Jones has shot up the individual rankings and is a huge target for both programs, and even though he’s technically a Bulldogs commitment, the Rebels have a chance to get him. Also, Tony Conner has both schools on his list, though it looks like he’s Ole Miss bound. When you add in all of the other big names the Rebels may land by signing day, it is clear Ole Miss has the advantage this year.
